BATTERY & CHARGER SAFETY
WARNING: Only use the diagnostic charger supplied with this kit to charge
the 20V Li-ion battery. Charging any other batteries may damage the charger
and possibly cause serious injury.
Do not store or carry the battery in a manner in which metal objects could contact
the exposed metal end. Do not place the battery in aprons, pockets, drawers, etc.
with loose nails, screws, keys etc. The battery could short circuit causing a fire,
personal injury or damage to the battery. Store in a warm dry place.
Never attempt to open the battery for any reason. If the housing of the battery
breaks or cracks, immediately discontinue use and do not recharge.
Do not charge the battery if it is wet or shows any evidence of corrosion.
A small leakage from the battery may occur under extreme usage, charging or
temperature conditions. This does not indicate a failure. However, if the outer
seal is broken and this leakage gets on your skin, follow these steps:
1. Wash immediately with soap and water.
2. Neutralize with a mild acid such as lemon juice or vinegar.
3. If liquid gets into your eyes, flush immediately with clean water for a
minimum of 10 minutes and seek medical attention.
NOTE: The battery liquid is slightly acidic.
Do not incinerate the battery. It can explode in a fire.
Do not use an extension cord. Plug the charger cord directly into an electrical outlet.
Use the charger only in a standard 120V, 60 Hz electrical outlet.
